工作场所学习与绩效：整合教学、研究与咨询的实践领域——访罗纳德·雅各布斯教授

Workplace Learning and Performance: An Interview with Prof. Ronald L. Jacobs

在终身学习理念的影响下,工作场所自然成为学习的重要空间。一般而言,工作场所学习的时间比学校学习的时间还要漫长,因此,对工作场所学习这一研究领域的重要性怎么强调也不为过。个体可以通过工作场所学习实现自我价值、促进其生涯的发展;组织可以通过工作场所学习提升整体的竞争力和实现其持续性发展;当社会的经济和结构处于转型阶段,工作场所学习更成为促进个体和组织适应环境变化和主动创新的重要措施。借在美国学习的机会,笔者访谈了人力资源开发领域的著名学者雅各布斯(Ronald L. Jacobs) 博士,他在访谈中论述了多个与人力资源开发专业相关的问题,并认为工作场所学习与绩效咨询是人力资源开发重要的实践领域,他整合了在该领域的教学经验、研究主题和咨询项目,实现了三者的互动和连通,多维度地促进该领域的发展。

Workplace learning is an important part of lifelong learning, and workplace is a major space for learning in most people's life. For individuals, workplace learning can help them realize their value and career development. For organizations, workplace learning can facilitate their sustainable development. For society, workplace learning can enhance its adaptability to changing environment. Human Resource Development (HRD) is an emerging area in China, and Chinese universities are developing HRD programs to meet the growing needs for HRD scholars and practitioners. Since HRD has a relatively long history of development in the U. S. , and many American HRD academic programs are influential, it has become critical to leverage the American experience to facilitate the growth of HRD in China. Dr. Ronald L. Jacobs, one of the leading thinkers in the HRD field, was interviewed and shared his insights on HRD including workplace learning and performance consulting-two areas that we can put HRD into practice.
